There is a missing link in the prophecy timeline of modern Israel. Prophecy buffs seem fixated on the build up to final wars, especially Gog and Magog. But there is a season of peace that is overlooked. Ezekiel 38 reveals conditions in Israel at the onset of that invasion. No less than seven times in three verses he describes an extraordinary peace. He addresses his prophecy to the invaders, telling them what Israel is like before Gog invades. Since Israel has not experienced that degree of peace yet since 1948, it must happen soon, before the Gog invasion. Check out the seven phrases here.
(8) “After many days you will be visited. In the latter years you will come into the land of those brought back from the sword and gathered from many people on the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate; they were brought out of the nations, and now all of them dwell safely. … (11) You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’ … (14) Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, ‘Thus says the Lord Yehovah: “On that day when My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it?”Ezekiel 38:8,11,14
Iran/Persia was specifically named as one of the invaders, but their roll is later, after the time of peace. Iran’s present regime is acting out of sequence with Scripture and therefore must be removed until their appointed timing to invade. That is why I conclude that this present action against Iran will completely succeed, providing Israel with a season of real peace with their neighbors.
I am working on a booklet to explain the modern timeline beginning with the Holocaust and prophesied resurrection of Israel in 1948. That was an historic change from judgement of Israel to favor and restoration described in Psalm 102. The next period is described in Psalm 83, a series of wars and attacks leading to the present time. It included the regaining of ancient Jerusalem from Jordan in the 1967 Six Day War, prophesied by Jesus Himself in Luke 21:24. He said gentiles would rule until their period of ruling would end. All of these dots are now connected. We have seen it with our own eyes. The mistake is to skip the “peace” that precedes the Gog & Magog invasion.
We all pray for Jesus’ return to be ASAP, but God’s word is sure and will be fulfilled precisely. I find this encouraging and look forward to a time of peace, at least for Israel. But it will surely ripple around the world. Am I looking for a third world war now? No, I am not. Here is one more little tidbit. Do you see any Israelis killed in Ezekiel 38? No, because God Himself will fight this battle. Please carefully pray and consider what I am saying. When prophesied events and history sync up we need to pay heed. Also, please refer to my post from last week about Jeremiah 49 regarding the judgement and deliverance of Iran/Elam/Persia.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and pray for President Trump and PM Netanyahu for wisdom and courage to do the right thing.
